At least 24 Egyptian policemen have been killed in an ambush attack in the Sinai peninsula.

Medical sources and officials said the police were in two buses which came under attack from armed men close to the town of Rafah on the Gaza border.

Three policemen were also reported to have been injured in the blast.

The Vietcong / ANC / IRA, Sandinistas etc etc can ALL show that the freedom fighters ALWAYS win (as, when being repressed to the point of extermination, they have nothing left to do but fight !)

The Egyptians are one of the most corrupt races on earth!
They deserve each other.

Freedom fighters are people engaged in resistance movements.

Usually against, what they believe to be, oppressive and/or illegitimate goverments.

To say they always win is factually incorrect.

But to say that they win - because when almost exterminated, they have nothing left to do but fight (!) - is rubbish, pure and simple.

There are so many examples which make this broad statement so wrong.

North American Indian tribes, for example (such as the Sioux and the Cherokee) - as well as the Donglin in China.

And the many factions who opposed the Roman Empire and were annihilated.

Yes WB - and really most who fought for their cause/country and lost!

Including the Maori People and Aboriginal Australians.


More ITK drivel....

Also ITK: I thought the Muslim Brotherhood were the freedom fighters (last week).
Just like those nasty Libyans.

Uum, maybe.

But does that mean they should be given freedom and then have it taken away because they chose the wrong side?

Then slaughtered when they ask for justice?

No wonder the world has gone potty !
